The Tree Swallow

Taking a ride down my Blue Bird Trail, I discovered a family of Tree Swallows nesting in one of the boxes. Sometimes, a common bird like a Swallow can make my day!

I love your bird condos and your dedication.

The swallow did not nest in this box this last summer. Maybe they will this spring.

[@TimTools99]

Yep!

[@TomCafiero]

Agreed a really COOL bird!

Nice bluebird houses, but you did not follow the placement rules of the experts! Bluebird and tree swallows houses should be away from the brush and trees, because sparrows and wrens will invade your nice Bluebird boxes. Always get rid of them nasty sparrows because they chase away and kill beautiful Bluebirds. I hope this helps you!

This is simple bird house I haven't see

The birdhouse works good. easy to clean.

Swallows always nest in my backyard. I destroy European sparrow nests. They're invasive nasty critters.

They wouldn't let me cross the field to go to school. They used to attack. I don't know why anyone would put swallow nest boxes in their backyard. both barn and tree swallows are too aggressive when nesting.

[@terrylieb1553]

People do not put out swallow feeders because they eat insects and bugs and do not eat birdseed!

@@terrylieb1553 I meant I don't know why people would put out nest boxes for them.
